About Mending

Mending is a team of healthcare nerds, software engineers, product designers, direct primary care doctors, health technology operators, and more. Our mission is to craft better health by accelerating the future of care.

Today, our products focus on Direct Primary Care (DPC). We build the technology and infrastructure that helps employers, health plans, TPAs, brokers, and DPC practices work together at scale. Our data platform integrates DPC into health plans in ways that lower costs, improve access, and deliver better outcomes for members. In doing so, we bring more patients into DPC practices while preserving what makes the model work.

Our aspirations for this role

As a Provider Operations Associate, you will serve as the operational backbone of our DPC supply team, keeping our foundational systems, credentialing vendors, and network compliance running smoothly. You’ll work across the full provider lifecycle, from hands‑on onboarding and data hygiene to resolving payment inquiries, maintaining URAC compliance standards, and meeting directly with provider practices to solve complex operational challenges. This is a versatile, execution‑focused role designed for an operational generalist who sees friction and acts on it independently without waiting for permission.

This role is perfect for a self‑starter who’s hungry to learn, excited about operational efficiency, and eager to leverage emerging AI tools to work faster and smarter. Your proactive execution will ensure our providers feel heard, supported, and have a great experience while partnering with Mending.
